[BUG]: Module 8.7.0, idrac_gather_facts role and iDrac8 (2.84.84.84)

[stf1966]

Bug Description

Testing the role idrac_gather_facts with different role target...

• target: BIOS,CPU,Firmware,HostNIC,Memory,NIC works correctly on iDrac v8 and v9
• target: IDRAC, System, Enclosure doesn't works on iDrac v8 ??? ok on v9

In fact, there isn't https://xxxxxx/redfish/v1/Managers/iDRAC.Embedded.1/Oem/Dell/DellAttributes/iDRAC.Embedded.1 on v8
Perhaps I misunderstand the documentation "Dell OpenManage Ansible Modules 8.7.0"

iDRAC8 based Dell PowerEdge Servers with firmware versions 2.84.84.84 and above.

We have a similiar issue here. R630 w/ Idrac8 running 2.85.85.85 fw.
We cannot gather facts on the System target. Other targets (see example above) just run as fine.

---
- name: Test idrac role
  gather_facts: false
  hosts: XXXX
  roles:
    - role: dellemc.openmanage.idrac_gather_facts
      vars:
        hostname: XXXXX
        username: XXXXXX
        password: XXXXX
        validate_certs: false
        target:
          # - System
          - Firmware
          - BIOS
          - CPU
          - Memory
          - NIC
          - PhysicalDisk

it seems the JSON returned by the System endpoint does not match the expected structure of the role.
The role tries to parse system_result.json.Oem.Dell.DellSystem but the returned JSON does not contain an Oem key.

For me it looks like System does not support IDRAC8.
